Start Fast. Finish Faster

Start Strong. Finish Stronger.

Brianna Leigh Sharp, was a charming and beautiful 13 year old with a bright future. Blessed with a tender and compassionate heart, she captivated everyone she met. She brightened our lives.

Brianna was diagnosed with Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma on October 5th, 2008. A rare and aggressive brainstem tumor, DIPG has an extremely grim prognosis. Brianna fought a courageous and inspirational battle for nine months. Unfortunately her DIPG followed its typical and seemingly inevitable course and she passed away on July 25th, 2009.

We are shaving our heads to raise money for childhood cancer research! Did you know that kids' cancers are different from adult cancers? It's true. And childhood cancer research is extremely underfunded. So we decided to do something about it by raising money for cures.

Now we need your help! Will you make a donation? Every dollar makes a difference for the thousands of infants, children, teens, and young adults fighting childhood cancers. 

St. Baldrick’s Honored Kids

It's all about the kids. Let's fund childhood cancer research to help kids grow up cancer-free. Get involved or make a donation today, and click a photo below to see why we need cures now.
